Hi!

When the very first GameBoy was released, I was hooked. A small screen on which something happens when I press buttons. Fascinating! 
Since then, I've been traveling in digital worlds and love to analyze how they work.

As a UX DesignerDesign SprinterWebflow Webdesigner, and UX Writer, I cover everything that helps users find their way to achieve their goals.
And by understanding business needs and technological requirements, I want to help you create something meaningful.

process

01

Exploring

Is it about a new or existing product? What should the product be able to do? What do you want to achieve? I will ask a lot of questions to get to know you and your product.
02

Detecting

In close contact with you, I find out the most suitable solution and method. I collect all the necessary information and material to prepare the structure of the product.
03

Prototyping and Testing

A quick prototype is the best way to get results. I find out what works for the user and what works for you and adapt the concept accordingly.
04

Creating

Now we develop and integrate the product into the existing system. Depending on the product, I also take over the development phase.
05

Launching and Supporting

After the launch of the product, we closely monitor how it is received, and where we can still improve something. You will receive a comprehensive summary.

“As his mentor during his UI Design Course, I have had the opportunity to observe his motivated participation and to evaluate Andrej’s knowledge of UX Design. I would highly recommend Andrej as a user experience designer and writer as he mastered his knowledge with great success creating several well-made applications.”

“Working with Andrej is always a pure pleasure. First of course because his results always fit the discussed requirements. But most of the times he did even more and suprised me with some of his own great ideas. Whenever I get the possibility I would love to work with Andrej again.”
